We are trying to mount an NFS share from our Terastation Pro on a CentOS 5.2 linux box. Authentication is setup to use "Delegate Authority to External SMB Server", but when mounting the share, all file ownership is shown as nobody:nobody. How do we resolve the ownership issues?

No. We have done the following:
1. Setup auth as previously described.
2. Created shared folder "Backups" with *no* Windows/Apple /FTP/Disk Backup support, *with* Shared Folder Attributes Read/Write.
3. Allowed the Backups shared folder to be used as an NFS Shared folder.
4 Mount the folder on a the linux box (note that directory permissions are 777 after the mount, allowing anyone to do anything):
[root@hiloii ~]# ls -ld /mnt
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 29 2007 /mnt
[root@hiloii ~]# mount 10.157.249.9:/mnt/array1/Backups /mnt
[root@hiloii ~]# ls -ld /mnt
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 6 Feb 18 16:18 /mnt
[root@hiloii ~]# chmod 755 /mnt
chmod: changing permissions of `mnt': Operation not permitted
[root@hiloii ~]# ls -la /mnt
total 8
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 6 Feb 18 16:18 .
drwxr-xr-x 29 root root 4096 Dec 11 11:03 ..
[root@hiloii ~]#
5. Create files by a known Samba user:
[root@hiloii ~]# grep cwfox /etc/samba/smbpasswd
cwfox:6015:<SNIP>
[root@hiloii ~]#
[cwfox@hiloii /]$ cd /mnt
[cwfox@hiloii mnt]$ ls -l
total 0
[cwfox@hiloii mnt]$ touch foo
[cwfox@hiloii mnt]$ ls -l
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 nobody nobody 0 Feb 19 10:20 foo
[cwfox@hiloii mnt]$ sudo chown cwfox foo
chown: changing ownership of `foo': Operation not permitted
[cwfox@hiloii mnt]$ rm foo
[cwfox@hiloii mnt]$ ls -l
total 0
[cwfox@hiloii mnt]$
Samba logs show no connections from the Terastation for auth. Hope this clarifies things.
